Exactly. Not exactly a spectacular military genius but an excellent leader. He made do with what he had.

Re: What is everyone reading?
OK, I'll try again since the last couple of posts have gone through.
I'm almost finished with Raid!: The Untold Story of Patton's Secret Mission, by Baron, Baum, and Goldhurst. It is a good, exciting read, but the numerous factual errors are a little irritating. The real problem with the work is the libelous, smearing of the reputations of several officers. It is very off-putting. I am disturbed by the poor treatment given to Col. Goode. The man was/is highly respected by those who served with him in the peace-time army and in combat. He is held in particularly high regard by the officers and men who served under him in the POW camps. The book would have been much better if the authors had paid more attention to the factual details, and resisted the temptation to grind a few axes.
I am also reading Erna Risch's landmark work Supplying Washington's Army. It's a tough slog, but well worth the effort.

Otto will have to address it Five-Z. I'll bet it has something to do with you being a Texan. Just a guess...

Re: What is everyone reading?
Thanks Slipdigit,
Now that I know what I'm up against, I'll have to buy a new rope. For some reason they always complain when I string 'em up with an old one.
